ImageKit DAM
Official ImageKit media library server: search, upload, organize, tag, share and manage assets.
One address for any MCP client. You sign in at imagekit.io once, after adding it.
What it does
- Reads
- Writes
- High impact
At most: creates or changes data: records, files, settings.
What it costs
FreeOdel charges nothing per call. The publisher may charge for its own service.
What it asks for at sign-in
| Access to | Read | Change |
|---|---|---|
| Mcp media library | ||
| Mcp custom metadata fields | ||
| Mcp cache |
From the sign-in at imagekit.io, as the endpoint publishes it. You approve it there.

ImageKit Skills
Reusable AI agent skills for ImageKit.io — install them with the skills CLI to enhance your coding agent's capabilities.
Skills
| Skill | Description |
|---|---|
| mcp-preflight | Which MCP server to call: DAM (media library), Admin (origins, URL endpoints, usage analytics), or DevTools |
| search-assets | Lucene searchQuery for DAM search_media_library — discover custom metadata and tags before guessing |
| upload-files | DAM uploads via create_upload_signatures_in_bulk (any number of files, from a shell) or the upload_file picker — never inline file bytes |
| asset-access-control | File/folder vs media-collection ACL tools, and the write rules that are easy to get wrong |
| ai-tasks | Payload shape for AI tagging, metadata extraction, and quality checks on DAM assets |
| search-docs | How to query DevTools search_docs (query rewriting and source selection) |
| transformation-builder | How to query DevTools transformation_builder for correct transformation URLs |
| imagekit-integrations | Index of ImageKit SDKs, plugins, and widgets — pick the right one for a stack, then search the docs |
Installation
There are two pieces to install: the skills (this repo) and the MCP servers:
| MCP server | URL | Auth |
|---|---|---|
imagekit_devtools | https://devtools-mcp.imagekit.io/mcp | None |
imagekit_dam | https://imagekit.io/mcp/dam | Sign in with your ImageKit account |
imagekit_admin | https://imagekit.io/mcp/admin | Sign in with your ImageKit account |
If you previously connected https://api-mcp.imagekit.io/mcp, remove it and add DAM and Admin instead.
What each server does:
| Server | Use it to |
|---|---|
| DAM | Search, upload, organize, tag, share, and manage the media library |
| Admin | Manage origins (external storage), URL endpoints, account usage, and usage analytics |
| DevTools | Search the docs and build transformation URLs (no sign-in) |
Pick one of the two methods below. Restart your editor after installing so the MCP servers take effect. Authenticate DAM and Admin when prompted.
Plugin method (recommended)
On Claude Desktop, Claude.ai (web), and VS Code, the ImageKit plugin installs the skills and MCP servers in a single step.
Claude Desktop & Claude.ai (web)
- Open Customize in the left sidebar and go to the Plugins tab.
- Under Personal plugins, click + → Add marketplace → Add from a repository, and enter
imagekit-developer/skills. - Install the ImageKit plugin from that marketplace.
- Enable the bundled
imagekit_devtools,imagekit_dam, andimagekit_adminconnectors, and authenticate DAM and Admin when prompted.
VS Code
- Open the Command Palette (
⇧⌘P) and run Install Plugin from Source. - Enter
imagekit-developer/skillsas the plugin source. - Restart VS Code.
Manual method
1. Install the skills (same command on every platform):
npx skills add imagekit-developer/skills --all
2. Add the MCP servers for your tool:
Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http imagekit_devtools https://devtools-mcp.imagekit.io/mcp
claude mcp add --transport http imagekit_dam https://imagekit.io/mcp/dam
claude mcp add --transport http imagekit_admin https://imagekit.io/mcp/admin
